I was actually startled when I came to this site. Freaky to say the least.

RE: Michael's hands - I'd say that's JPEG compression errors, but I could be wrong.

re: the funky hands

come to think of it; yes, those are some freaky looking hands for someone who's only 47.

I've been pointing out the similarities between Depp's Wonka and MJ ever since the trailer came out! Thank you for letting me know that I'm not the only one who notices these things.

Isn't MJ supposed to have some sort of rare skin condition that makes him so light skinned? Could the bruising around his hand be the result of that condition, or is it just from getting his hand caught in the cookie jar?

Actually that isn't Wonka, it's Charlie, because I believe Charlie And The Choclate factory is a follow up to Willy Wonka And The Choclate Factory, since Willy gave Charlie the Choclate Factory, you know right before they flew out of the glass roof of that building in that awesome space ship thing...

Michael Jackson looks like the talking gremlin from Gremlins 2. I wonder what would happen if we got him wet/let him eat after midnight?

Thanks, Sarah, for pointing that out to Tyler. This is not a follow-up, but a remake of the original. Roald Dahl's book is Charlie and The Chocolate Factory, and the Gene Wilder movie changed the title for marketing purposes.

And as for great glass elevators, didn't I hear that Jacko encouraged those minors to do some glass elevating themselves? Giving alcohol to minors, keeping them in bed with you, perhaps touching them inappropriately and, even worse, making them listen to Pretty Young Thing over and over again.

The "condition" that Michael "suffered" from is called vitilago. My mom has had it since she was 12. Basically, your body detects melanin as harmful and therefore attempts to rid itself of it -- leaving your skin with white (melanin-free) patches. It's NOT a GRADUAL lightening of your skin. My mom has several patches (on her arms, legs, neck, face...everywhere) and they continue to expand as more and more melanin is eaten away. But it's by no means a rapid process. She's 48 and has had this since she was 12 --- and her skin is FAR from being entirely white. Jacko went from brown to white relatively quickly, didn't he? And when was he ever seen with patches?? Never. That claim is bull shit. The only thing this freak suffered from* was obsessive skin bleaching. Nice try, tho...

*N.B: in the way of his skin condition

i think jonny depp somehow looks ammmmaaazzzingly hot in any role. Michael Jackson on the other hand, is a complete freak. That is the worst picture i have seen of him EVER. I dont c y they dont just lock him up now.

Johnny looks like a nice verison of Anna Wintour in drag and MJ looks as if he is wearing a rubber mask.

Maybe its just me....but does it look like he widened his nose again? Perhaps the "flu" he had to be brought to the hospital for was more like "lets make my nose look somewhat less grotesque" hospital trip?

His hair kinda looks like Lauren Holly's in Dumb and Dumber. He needs one of the cloth hair band things and he would look real sweet.

The first thing I noticed was Michael Jackson's hands. They're all yellow and waxen. That purple patch on the back of one hand makes him look like a dead person. I bet people in the casket look like that, except for the ghoulish vampiric face...*shudder*

With all the money that weirdo has, and as much as he's fucked up his face..you'd THINK that he do SOMETHING with his hands......really.

I'm a bit worried about myself because I've never found Johnny Depp hotter than in his Willy Wonka incarnation.

That being said, Michael Jackson=the Cryptkeeper's little brother.
